Cecal bascule - An unusual cause of intestinal obstruction: A case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionCecal bascule is a rare type of cecal volvulus occurring in the elderly population with a male predominance. It is a condition where the cecum folds upward upon itself. IMPORTANCE: There are only a handful of case reports published about cecal bascule. This is the first case being reported from Pakistan. CASE PRESENTATION: A 68 year old female, known hypertensive and osteoporosis presented in the ER with complaints of vomiting, abdominal distension and absolute constipation. Radiology was non-diagnostic. She was treated with cecectomy and anastomosis. Post operatively she developed ileus for which was managed. She was subsequently discharged at 8th day post op. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The management of cecal bascule is always surgery with predilection towards cecopexy or cecetomy to prevent recurrence. This manuscript is as per the SCARE case report checklist [1].
